    Finally installed my oil catch can this past Sunday. Added a bit of the steel scrubby to the baffle section. Sorry for the poor pictures...cell phone plus the underhood led lights didnt like each other to much! Location isnt the best as i had to remove it from the bracket to take the can apart but o well its easy to do at least.

    What tires are you running? Rugged Trails? If you need new tires but don't want to dish a lot of money check out treadwright.com. A lot of people have mixed opinions on them since they're retreads, but I've had mine for 10,000 miles so far and not a single problem and they still look almost new. Not bad for $570 shipped.

    Rugged terrains... Figured they learned the first time around and figured I would give them a try since they were already on the truck at the dealership

    Rog. I've heard bad things about rugged trails and rugged terrains. I've seen some only last for no more than 20k miles and seen some chunk out pretty bad from an average trail.

    Yeah I have huge chunks missing but I use my tires pretty hard lots of gravel and dirt at high speeds .. The tread should not be separating at 27k though..

    Swapped out my winter wheels & tires for my black powder coated sports w/ Revo2's. And finally got around to swapping the stock S/C pulley for a URD Stealth 2.85. I cant believe I've been setting on this pulley for over a year! The truck feels awesome! I also did the FPR mod as well just for added insurance. The AFR's looked pretty soild at about 11 flat @ WOT. With the FPR mod it dips to about 10.5 @ WOT. :headbang: :burnrubber:

    Damn, that sucks. I'd fight that.

    Thanks! The badge runs downhill a cockhair, but I adjusted and taped it down for the night. To hate badges so much, I cannot believe I added one:)

    No, it shouldn't. Unless you're doing some serious wheeling with over-pressurized tires.

    I run 35 and mostly unmaintained roads a few times a week around 65mph or so no jumps or anything wouldn't think that's to much abuse maybe I'm wrong

    Looking really good! If you were to remove the TRD decal, and dip/remove the emblems it would really clean up the body, and direct the focus where it should be. Just my opinion. Either way, nice work.

    Thanks!!

    No spacers, the offset sets them like that, I was glad I didn't need them as I wanted them out just a little..
